    I know I asked about the SOS Concepts bumper but don't think I asked for opinions on the RRW.

    Anyone have any? Or just it just go back to the construction factor like with SOS

    It's started...I'll be on jack stands for about 2-3 weeks. I pulled the front end apart this weekend and dropped of the UCAs and coilovers with @TMFF to be rebuilt with 700lb springs and delta joints. I ordered a set of TC gusseted spindles from @glorifiedwelder which are shipping out this week.

    I still don't know if I actually bent the new passenger side spindle you and I installed, or if threw something else out with my alignment. Cam tabs look as bad as they did last time, nothing looks spun around. I definitely bent my UCA bolt on the passenger side a little...so now I'm thinking about coil bucket gussets. I'll have to figure out how to measure the spindle against a known good one. If it's still good, I'll have a set of spares...which is probably good for me because I keep hitting shit.

    And you'll be happy to hear I finally pulled my sway bar

    Welcome. I lived in Billings too - long ago. Have family in Bozeman too. Hope the influx of people does not make you regret the move. Lots to do that is for sure.

    I'm not expecting that removing my sway bar will solve the problem of my lack of skill as a driver, but after watching @50 amocaT just walk up and down everything I used my lockers for during RT, I'm finally convinced to try it out.

    What makes you think you need the coil bucket gussets? I always considered those to be for trucks with 35"+ tires and folks who jump their trucks.

    One of the last time @thefatkid was doing an alignment, he could get my numbers better wound require moving the uca ball joint inward but it’s at the max now and barly misses the coil when at full droop. So either at some point it’s gotten bent in slightly :notsure: or needs to be bent outward so I can have better alignment #

    I noticed an increase in MPG after 10,000 miles, so maybe not ;). The increase is where I am now. Seems like we are both on par for the elevation though.

    Nice, setup. I'm running stock tires, no lift and tube steps. Comparatively seems like I'm getting what I should. Thanks for the reply.

    There are kits out there where you just have to entice Josh with Beer or whatever to Weld it together for you. :D

    Saves both in Shipping and Purchase price as a kit.

    I have a hopefully good OEM Knuckle/ Spindle (has TC welded on too) if you want to compare it. Best part is I actually know where it is located in the Garage! :thumbsup:
